build motor with 10k, cage, brakes. Have 500+whp, save rest of the money.

not sure if this post is fucking serious or not

It's hilarious because a lot of people who build cars end up parting out/selling their car within 3 years and don't gain anything out of it. Rather losing shitloads of money. BAD investment.

Truth, that satisfaction only last so long after you build it and then shit starts to break down or need replacing and you just don't want to deal with it anymore. I spent way more than my car was worth and took a major loss when i had to sell it...

99.9% of the cars people are listing arn't anywhere near 300hp in this thread. You can get a f-body for about 6-10g's. The LS1 they have is known to make 300-330HP and around 360TQ to the wheels bone stock.

pontiac gto is going to be a great choice for power. don't forget about insurance and gas. 350zs are excellent so are g35 but they are known to burn oil and are very costly to mod. there is the mustang gt as well. great platform and HUGE aftermarket. A terminator would be sick, but for 15k you would get a high mileage one.

Too bad RX7's aren't what you call &quot;reliable&quot;, a true drivers car as it seems but I would never recommend it to those who wouldn't wrench a car themselves. Not that I have owned one but wankels are known for having issues.

Apparently they have less issues if you keep the revs up, less wear on your spinning triangles if they spin faster, but I know what you mean. They are 15-20 years old, so problems are guaranteed to occur, that's what the banked 3k float is for. Personally though, I think the FD with the A-spec bumper looks nicer and newer than most current RWD offerings.
